Philosophy

A luxury sport car approaching a sumptuous town hall, a soprano singing in a dramatic Romanesque church, romantic fireworks lightening a castle in a warm summer night, black dressed waiters serving champagne in a breath-taking terrace overlooking the ocean.

A wedding is made by many important details that make it a unique event. And this is the essence of our philosophy: design unique events.

We care about the quality of all our services and at the same time we try to satisfy the most demanding tastes, always following the rules of our profession to the best of our ability.

The pictures in this book are a genuine memory of each of our events and they represent what we think is worth remembering...
